Process Notes:
I was originally going to make a poster or banner of some kind that had a kind of Giving Tree vibe about a mom and greedy children. However, the whole nature-is-a-mother-we-are-taking-advantage-of form of environmental awareness is so played out, especially in my writing.
I thought the Bread and Puppet Theatre stuff we looked at was awesome, so I tried my best shot at making a how-to kind of like the one we read. Deciding what “how to’s” I wanted to add was the most difficult part of making this because I wanted issues/guides that felt relevant, but I could still write in a sort of sarcastic tone. I wanted to have a mix of drawings and words so that it still felt like a visual poem rather than something I could have just typed up.
(Hopefully the file uploads properly. Fingers crossed.)
